3.53 Ct. Greenish Blue Sapphire from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A greenish blue heart of light, this transparent sapphire weighs 3.53 carat, and measures 8.87 x 9.70 x 5.38 mm, its silhouette cut into a perfect heart that seems to hold a small ocean within, the hue deep and intense yet touched with the gentleness of a twilight sea. The mixed brilliant cut scatters kisses of fire across its pavilion and crown, every facet polished to an excellent finish that makes the stone breathe with life, clarity graded very slightly included when viewed at eye level, allowing a purity of glance that feels like a clear promise. To hold this gem is to feel cool water and warm sun at once, a stone that speaks in soft currents, inviting devotion and the quiet exchange of words that will last for a lifetime.

This heart carries the legacy of Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a land where sapphires have been treasured for millennia, worn by kings and poets, used as talismans for protection, wisdom, and faithful love. Heat treated to enhance its vivid personality, the gem follows an ancient tradition of skilled care, a gentle refinement that honors the natural beauty beneath, much like the way a storyteller polishes a tale to reveal its golden core. In centuries past, sapphires were set as pledges of fidelity, given at unions and coronations, believed to soothe the mind and steady the heart, and this heart shaped sapphire brings that heritage into the present, a modern heirloom that carries old comforts and new promises.

At The Natural Sapphire Company each gem is selected and spoken for with reverence, and this piece is no exception, a stone ready to be set into an engagement ring that will whisper of seas and stars, or into a pendant that will rest above the heart as a daily benediction. Imagine a ring warming against the skin, a loved one catching the light and seeing devotion mirrored back, a gift that ties two histories into one. For those who seek romance woven with history, and clarity paired with passion, this Ceylon heart sapphire offers a lifelong companion, a jewel that remembers the rituals of the past, and that invites you to begin your own.
